However, despite Lucy’s defiant message, it is now being claimed that Ryan has been left unsettled by the media storm.

An insider claiming to be close to the Coronation Street actor has told the MailOnline that Ryan is ‘in pieces’ over the clip.

‘He is in pieces over the video – really upset,’ said the source.

‘He’s a pretty forgiving guy and knows how tactile Lucy can be but this footage seems a little more than someone saying goodbye.’

With the couple taking to the front cover of the latest edition of OK! magazine, discussing their forthcoming plans to tie the knot, the source then added that Ryan is upset with the timings of the drama.

‘Ryan is also pretty embarrassed that the footage emerged the same week as they appeared on the cover of OK! mag gushing about how much they love one another,’ they added.
